Here are a few of our favourite books for Mothers Day.
• Bored of Lunch: The Healthy Slow Cooker Book - Nathan Anthony
This is the perfect Cookbook for the mother who has just bought a Slow Cooker and needs some inspiration for recipes. 'Bored of Lunch' has been incredibly popular since it came out and customers are raving about its easy to prepare and delicious recipes!
• The Story of Art without Men - Katy Hessel (Waterstone's Book of the Year 2022)
An homage to the female artists and their work which has been glossed over in Art History. This is a beautiful, informative book, perfect for the Art loving mum.
• Someone Else's Shoes - Jojo Moyes
A moving, heartfelt story about a mix up at the gym that leaves two women walking in each-others shoes- literally- from the author of 'Me Before You'
• Exiles - Jane Harper
A blistering new thriller that sees Aaron Falk grapple with the mystery of a missing mother and the tensions that brew among the seemingly tight knit community.
SATURDAY STORYTIME...
Our next Saturday Storytime will be held on Saturday 4th March at 12pm. We will be reading 'I Am Not A Prince' by Rachael Davis and Beatrix Hatcher.
This is a fun read about a frog that doesn't want to be a Prince. It has made the Shortlist for the Waterstones Children's Prize in the Illustrated Books Shortlist.
We look forward to seeing everyone there!
